I got a Charvel San Dimas Strat today ;-)

[ADR]

Hello everyone,I now have a brand spakin new San Dimas Strat to add to my collection.(89 USA-YJM Strat & Custom Shop Strat)
A friend told me about it,went to play it and left with it. Its a H/S setup with NOS bridge and awesome Black Cherry custom color w/RW. Plays like a dream. I traded in a MIM Strat in for it,Killer axe,killer deal.
Forgive the question about the Pups, but it has a TB-14 & a SCR-1. You guys please tell me about the Pups. My 1st post, take it easy on me.I always regretted selling my 86 USA Jackson bolt-on (#1010) years ago,so I had to get this.

Welcome to the forum! Aaaaand...
Man there's been a lot of that lately..

[Robert Burns]

Welcome !! Sound like your excited? LOL At least you dont have to
wait for a year. Nice that you could actually play it first. Let us see
some pictures as soon as you can, as your discription sounds unique to
me at least. I have a "new incoming" today also! Then i'll have 2 Charvels to go with my Jackson Dinky. (I only have 3 electrics) which
almost does not allow me to even be on this board! Welcome again

Black Cherry

You asked for,you got it. Having a hard time capturing the true color.It looks black w/hints of cherry normally.When I use the flash,it shows more of a burgandy and can see the metal flake.Anywho,here are some pix.
ps:had to get my paw prints off, this thing is glossy as heck,top half of body is close to what im talking about.




I love the big ol brass strap hardware too.

Congrats on the new guitar. This is a very cool color and the brass hardware looks great on it. Killer axe. I dig H/S setups too.

Thanks so much Joe. Wasnt sure about post pix,due to the gallery part in here,being a newbie.

Awsome, H-S kicks ass!

[CMB]

That looks great - I just wish they would have used a brass knob. Personal opinion and all that...

Nice color too - something other than the usual white, black, or blue.

Looks great. You didn't happen to buy that at Hermies, did you?

Hermies

Yes,I did. Good call.(small world)
I might get a brass knob,I just got it yesterday,so didnt want to start changing stuff.
I thought a brass knob with a gold HB ring and gold tuners would look killer,but bone stock right now. I dont have the $$$ ,at some point maybe.
I liked the snow white with gold/brass appointments Charvels,thats what I was kinda taking a liking to.but when I saw this, then played it, it was more than overwhelming

Where might I find a brass or gold knob clone knob? I saw there is barrel tops,round,round with dot?

I agree. A nice change of pace. Good luck with it.

[Johnnyryche]

Very cool color. I thought about ordering a Charvel SD in this color with an ebony board and OFR. Congrats.

Maybe they have one laying around or can get you one.

I've got a dual hum with a floyd and ebony fretboard in the same color. I love that color! I even chose mine over a red ghost flame. I call it more of a Rolls Burgandy because it looks so classy. CONGRATS!
